   ocr: CELIAS SOME RESULTS IN A NUISHELL The movie shows iron charge state distribution in daily images. The E/Q axis is a measure for the velocity of the iron ions. The horizontal' lines are drawn for ion velocities of 300, 400, 500, and 600 km/s from bottom to top, as indicated. The vertical lines give the charge state of the iron ion, as indicated. The charge state distribution IS a measure of the electron temperature in the corona. If the charge state distribution is centered at high charges, the electron temperature is high and vice versa. Note the correlation of the average charge of the charge ...
